1 NIMS Compliance for U.S. Hospitals
2 Emergency Management Program vs. Incident Command System An organization s Emergency Management Program involves activities across four phases: Mitigation Preparedness Response, and Recovery The National Incident Management System (NIMS), Incident Command System (ICS) primarily focuses on the response and recovery phases. 2
3 Why is a National Incident Management System Necessary? VHA operates health care facilities across the U.S. and its territories. Hazard-related damage will create internal requirements and VHA will be asked to provide support under the National Response Plan. The President mandated that the Incident Command System (ICS) will be used by Federal, State, local, tribal and private sector organizations. 3
4 Homeland Security Presidential Directive #5: Management of Domestic Incidents To enhance the ability of the United States to manage domestic incidents by establishing a single, comprehensive national incident management system (T)he objective of the United States Government is to ensure that all levels of government across the Nation have the capability to work efficiently and effectively together. 4
5 National Incident Management System (NIMS) To provide for interoperability and compatibility among Federal, State, and local capabilities, the NIMS will include a core set of concepts, principles, terminology, and technologies covering the incident command system; multi-agency coordination systems; unified command; training; identification and management of resources (including systems for classifying types of resources); qualifications and certification; and the collection, tracking, and reporting of incident information and incident resources. 5
6 Use of NIMS by Federal Agencies The heads of Federal departments and agencies shall adopt the NIMS within their departments and agencies and shall provide support and assistance to the Secretary in the development and maintenance of the NIMS All Federal departments and agencies will use the NIMS in their domestic incident management and emergency prevention, preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation activities, as well as those actions taken in support of State or local entities. 6
7 NIMS Compliance Requirements
8 NIMS Compliance FY05-06 Emergency Management Program-level requirements for State, local and tribal governments 23 elements for State governments 17 elements for local and tribal governments FY06 Federal requirements released 4 elements Apply to VHA Central Office and VISN offices FY07 U.S. Hospital requirements to be released 17 elements Will apply to VA Medical Centers 8
9 Current NIMS Requirements: Federal Agencies Incorporate NIMS into existing training and exercise programs. Ensure that Federal preparedness grant programs require the use of NIMS by grantees. Incorporate NIMS into Emergency Operations Plans (EOPs). Institutionalize the use of the Incident Command System (ICS). 9
10 U.S. Hospitals 17 elements of compliance 5 categories: Organizational Adoption Command and Management Preparedness Planning Preparedness Training Preparedness Exercises Resource Management Communications and Information Management 10
11 NIMS Compliance and the VHA Emergency Management Program Guidebook The 2005 EMP Guidebook provides additional information on NIMS in Sections 2 and 3. The 17 elements can be accomplished through the Nine- Step Process described in Section 3. 11

16 Command and Management (con t) Element 3: Multi-agency Coordination System. Coordinate and support emergency incident and event management through the development and use of integrated multi-agency coordination systems, i.e., develop and maintain connectivity capability between local Incident Command Posts (ICPs), local 911 centers, local Emergency Operations Centers (EOCs) and the state EOC. Example of compliance: The organization s Emergency Operations Plan explains the management and coordination linkage between the organization s emergency operations center and other, similar, external centers. 16

18 Preparedness Planning Element 5. Health care organizations will track NIMS implementation on a yearly basis as part of the organization s emergency management program. Example of compliance: NIMS organizational adoption; command and management; preparedness planning, training and exercising; resource management; and communications and information management activities will be tracked from year-to-year with the goal of improving overall emergency management capabilities. 18
19 Preparedness Planning (con t) Element 6. Develop and implement a system to coordinate appropriate hospital preparedness funding to employ NIMS across the organization. Example of compliance: The organization s emergency management program documentation includes information on local, state and federal preparedness grants that have been received and work progress. 19
20 Preparedness Planning (con t) Element 7. Revise and update plans and SOPs to incorporate NIMS components, principles and policies, to include planning, training, response, exercises, equipment, evaluation and corrective action.
